Today was the reunion of the 1991 World Champion Twins team at Target Field. They had a really cool pregame event with all the players who came back for it. While reading about the event a few days ago, I found that the guest DJ would be DJSkee. I do not know much about the deejay scene but I did recognize the name as he was the person who designed the Byron Buxton Topps Project 70 card of which I had a pair of. I thought I would prep one and bring it along to the game just in case I went by there and he was available to sign it. He did not let me down. Before the game he was deejaying in the Plaza and I waited until he had a moment. When he looked up and showed him the card and mimicked him signing and he waved me to the booth. He was really neat! He asked my name and signed the card “Thx 4 the love!” I thanked him and he gestured appreciation of me (!) and I went on my way. I was surprised at what a cool experience it was! My night got off to a great start and the Twins clobbered the Rays to finish it! Cami and I had a blast!
When I got home I found that I received a ticket I had sent in for a Jason Bartlett signing. Seton Younggren had a private signing event and I had a second ticket for the game Jason hit his first home run so I sent it in. Jason and Seton did not disappoint! Seton even went so far as to send me a photo of Jason signing my ticket! It looks great and I am excited to have it in the collection!
